Hi Donald It's actually ethernet only and by technology wise it's always usual drop on ethernet and with ethernet I mean ethernet protocol delivered via usual RJ45 copper or LC/SC fiber interfaces. It's just weird that industry around here still does pricing in STM 1 / STM 4 etc. On SDH transport it stays as usual but on internet transit it's always bandwidth in whatever x STMs delivered over ethernet pipe. So you will find people talking of their buying or selling price as yearly STM1 price rather than per Mbps/month or 1Gig monthly price. So one cannot easily buy 100Mbps but rather be quoted for a STM1 price or 6 STMs for a Gig kind of requirement. :) On Thu, Oct 29, 2015 at 10:23 AM, Donald Clark <[email protected]> wrote: > > On Mon, Oct 19, 2015 at 11:22 AM, Anurag Bhatia <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> @Sujay - True, 10G is slowly picking up in India specially on peerings >> with large content players.
